Don't they get it's the cap and not the salary and term that matter with respect to the team cap. His cap hit, for a number one is only 5.3. That isn't a problem. Yes, the term is difficult but it is a moveable contract and the acquiring team has an out.

Yes, mostly clueless.Where are the teams without an elite level goaltender?Washington, Tampa, Florida, Colorado. Gee, they're all in the lottery. Yet the still moan about paying 6 or 7 mil for a goaltender

Sadly, I think MG's chance for best deal has already passed, he needed to make it at the beginning of the season
